Good evening, Mike and John. 

Sounds like many Thread Brothers were productive today. 


Yup, sounds like it. Nice weekend so far. My boss's boss gave us Friday off. Four day weekend without using any leave is always nice.

Mike I would go with more hulls, even with the beta patch subs seem to be deadly (and that is with the high dud rate).

TGW, I think that may be the way to go. That'll maximize use of existing industry instead of wasting supply building more excess industry.

Time for bed. See you guys tomorrow.

Good night, Mike.  I'm hanging around for a bit longer, in case Mynok is still sorting a turn for me....and I have to kick off another level of Crystal mine construction in 45 minutes.

I still think it may be worth it to build some LI in some outlying areas. Better than trying to ship it all to Honshu. Maybe Indochina and Formosa, as well as some of the SRA. If they're built in Dec 41, they break even in Aug 44. Still not sure if it's worth it. Maybe it would be better to spend the supply to increase merchant shipyards to get more hulls.....

Stopping all LI production on Honshu should help a lot, as they consume much ressources.

Good morning all!

Cycling today and the weather is fine (just too cold )

Just tired. Lots of stuff going on in my life at the moment, and not a lot of it good. That's why I nearly snapped in this place earlier this week; patience ran out.




Best wishes Kristian...

Hi guys. I canned 2 gallons of spaghetti sauce last night. Tonight we had a cookout. Ribs on the grill. Yum! Tomorrow we're going to make some grape jam. If there's time we'll can more sauce. The tomatoes are never ending this year.

I just spent the last couple of hours doing an assessment of the Japanese resource, oil and fuel situation. Honshu will need 3.4 million resources a month to keep the HI factory workers employed. That's 112k resources a day. I can't see how it will work. They produce all but 30k and have an excess of resources to last the war. But getting it to Honshu will be a chore.


Making it from home-grown tomatoes is the best

Bruce, you are invited to wash and wax my wife's car anytime.



Good evening, Andy.

We have friends that own a carwash and detailing business. They do a fantastic job with hand washing and waxing. It's worth every penny to me for them to do it.



I don't know anyone in the detailing businessd and I am trying to keep my expenses down.

The silver paint on my 2001 car looks pretty good for being 8 years old in Florida. It is a little faded on the back bumper but that is all

Yeah, that would help a lot. It would save almost 3 million resources a month, but you also lose almost 200k supply a month. That would hurt.

The supply production must be put out of the Home Islands to where the ressources are produced. To be able to afford this, one may have to let the LI run for a year, but after that, one may shut it off.
That's in fact the goal: Use the ressources where they are - they don't have to be shipped then. Expanding the Industrys in Indochina/Siam/Malaya and the DEI is something I'll defenitly do!
